I also hope Brandon has already found a new coach or is close to getting one.

I do feel bad for Rich Rodriguez the man, but not the coach. Yeah some problems were that he was not embraced by the Michigan family, BUT the first 2 years, Rod didn't really try to embrace the Michigan culture either.

I just saw that too over on the scout boards. Haha well at least he is telling us how he really feels now.

Michigan just has to decide on an identity and stick with it. If they change offenses and defenses and trust the coaching staff, stick with it for a bit. I'll gladly take continued turnover at Michigan as an Ohio State alum, but it is just a mess to keep making complete 180s every few years.

He was just in way over his head as was his staff.

David Brandon now has to find the right coach for the job

The guy left his alma mater where he was already a legend to go elsewhere. He was absolutely loved here and that's why so many people threw such a fit when he left. I didn't really have a problem with him leaving like everyone else did but I don't really feel bad for him now that he has failed either.

what do you guys think happens to him now though? a couple years ago at wvu he was considered one of the hottest coaching prospects around after leading them to some great seasons, does he get a job at a school that already runs some version of his offense that he can tweak to make his own, or does some other school take a flier on him and hope that he can actually make something out of a program like he did at west virginia?

Has anyone heard the rumor/story that before Bo died he told Les Miles he would never coach at Michigan? The word on the recruiting trail a few years ago was that Les was telling recruits that Lloyd had parkinsons and that was reason he was retiring. Any truth to this at all?
